The Commer Maxiload offers far more than the profit earning potential of a body/payload allowance of 11/ tons.
Its Rootes diesel, for example, gives 335 lb. ft. of torque, which varies by only 121% between 800-2,400 r.p.m. These figures mean fast stepping acceleration, less down shifting and a lean appetite because the engine is operating in the prime economy r.p.m.
A power output of 135 b.h.p. from 3.52 litre displacement challenges comparison. So with economy comes fast cruising on the open highway.
And more, the Commer Maxiload offers the operating flexibility of a five-speed synchromesh gearbox (six-speed overdrive optional extra), the ease of power assisted steering, and the safety of full air cam dual circuit service brake and secondary and positive lock park brake. The cab is big, roomy, has a flat floor and the driver's seat is torsion loaded. All good reasons why a Maxiload driver is justifiably a Commer enthusiast. We could go on. Call your Commer dealer and he will.
